“Someone should please explain to Samklef that my name is not and was never on this royalty split sheet that he is posting. I’ve never controlled it. He needs to take this up with Sony/ASCAP/BMI and his publisher not me. I’ve never taken a dine off those royalties and never will,” he wrote.
According to Samklef, Banky W, whose real name is Bankole Wellington, told Wizkid to remove Samklef’s name as a contributor in the song.
In an Instagram live video late Friday, Samklef, who produced Wizkid’s then hit song, Pakurumo, off Superstar album, claimed that Banky W failed to properly compensate him (Samklef) for his input in the hit song.
He also accused Banky W of wanting to removed his name from the song.
